I just want to point out that the tarfile is built every time you run
"make rpm" (which I do quite a lot - I prefer installing rpms to the
carnage created by make install), and this increases the time for make
rpm on my system by 1min38sec. (jtomko may have something to say about
that, since he's been interested in shaving fractions of a second off
the build time in the last few days :-O)
Am I going to need to carry a local patch to revert this so that I don't
get *even more* bored waiting for builds to complete? Or is there a
reasonable way to make it easily configurable with a switch to autogen?
(even then I would still need a patch to the specfile, unless we could
make it happen based on some environment setting).
(Aside from that, I applied the patch and it does work).
Changes from [v1]:
* Update all references to .tar.gz, including spec files,
scripts and documentation (thanks Dan)
* Fix typo lenght -> length (thanks Ján)
